To prepare this ravioli, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the fresh ravioli to the boiling water. Stir gently to prevent them from sticking together. Cook for a short time, typically just a few minutes, until the ravioli float to the surface and are tender. Drain them carefully using a colander. Serve immediately with your favorite sauce, such as a marinara, pesto, or a simple olive oil and garlic dressing. You can also add vegetables or plant-based proteins to enhance the dish.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike dried pasta, fresh ravioli cooks much faster due to its higher moisture content. The texture is often softer and more delicate. This plant-based version differs from traditional ravioli by excluding dairy and eggs from both the pasta dough and the filling.
